In bad news for WWE & THQ, the SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 video game has not sold nearly as well as the previous year's version. Sales were down 22% at of the end of the year compared with the same time period for the 2008 version of the game. THQ was hoping to break even this year, but lackluster sales for the WWE game as well as the SpongeBob SquarePants game (down 19% from last year) will make it difficult for the video game publisher. "The WWE decline is particularly concerning since that franchise had been one of THQ's last bastions of strength." The decline was said to be more alarming since this year's game had considerably better critical reviews compared to last year.
